So it’s not the sheet

#

so in aoe, after dotting up, if you have darkest night up, and end up at full CP (fan of knives), do you muti before using envenom (to get spatter) despite being at full combo point?
Or just dont be bad and muti a target before using fan of knives so you wont notice overcapping?

Have some one an idea how i can solve the Energy Problem? In Short fights No prob, but i think in Raid fight it can be a Problem. And yes i use the tea.

just the design of the spec

if anythign spatter should've been up before you ever reached 7cp in like 99% of the situations (as specified 'after dotting things up', it should've done during that)

TLDR:
Maintain max uptime on envenom

For Fatebound, sanguine blades is typically much better than Deathstalker. For this reason, if you can't maintain Envenom uptime anymore, you should build combo points, then reset your energy back to around 70% before maintaining again.
For Deathstalker, try to stay under 50% as much as possible while maxing out Envenom uptime. Single target builds play vicious venoms instead of sanguine blades as well.

The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and use energy more efficiently for Deathstalker marks/cooldowns. Staying under 50% leads to more envenom casts, which is more Darkest Night Procs. For Fatebound, heads flips contribute damage regardless of if you're flipping or not, so this pressure to keep spending is lessened.

#

I replaced moroes for a second

cobalt sphinx
#

spatter essentially makes your envenom do 45% more damage for every extra target in range

#

kind of a big deal

thick sigil
#

ye thats why it felt a waste to not have up before consuming darkest night (atleast in aoe)

#

i just need to potato less, get it up quicker

#

HC too easy, rots my brain i guess

raven egret
#

indeed but like mentioned you should never put yourself in a position where you reach 7cp to consume DN without already having applied spatter to begin with

All Specs are good and have niches and strengths that they play to. All three specs are looking viable with Assassination/Subtlety being preferred in raids. Mythic+ meta has not solidified yet but Assassination looked promising during beta.

Be aware that Simulations are a tool to be used to compare things like talents/gear/rotations, they are not the definite answer to what is meta or not meta. While outlaw is ahead in sims right now, especially dungeonslice, you have to take a step back and realize these are synthetic/generic situations that we use as a baseline. Dungeonslice has always been a great showing for outlaw simply due to the fight style matching well with the spec. This is not unusual or unheard of.

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
  • Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results

!carnage

prisma monolithBOT
#

Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required

  • The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
  • You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets

Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.

It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.

new command to save the fingies from typing on repeat

Can we have a meeting about meeting up to discuss all that?

and can't add more to it

wouldn't help regardless though

the people coming in here asking the same questions over and over don't read pins or the guide

or really interact at all

...
Apparently.

balmy condor

but yeh, help command to long

#

we have 70 commands

#

doesn't fit

raven egret
#

But yeah if they don't know there are commands no way they know there's a help command anyway

balmy condor
#

it'll go back to normal and we can get rid of some of the commands when the season starts

#

and things die down a little

#

hopefully

novel star

simply maintain a pastebin

probably

what's our best consumable combination atm? alchemical chaos flask + tempered potion?

vestal wren

for trinkets:

  • Any stat on use trinket is good for subtlety/assassiantion
  • A passive trinket goes well in the 2nd slot, you can farm the egg one if you rly want
  • There is a minecart and honey trinket, both seem to sim well alternatively

fallow estuary
#

Do we delay our 2nd deathmark till vanish is up?

mystic kettle
#

How much does Attack Power actually improve our damage by? Wonder if it's worth picking up a couple for the raid

#

3k per stone dead

raven egret
#

Oh wait NVM I dumb

fallow estuary
#

:D

raven egret
#

Death mark not , DSM

#

Still no

#

Send it

fallow estuary
#

Since the guide says to cast vanish BEFORE (in caps) deathmark

raven egret
#

If you delay that you delay KB you delay everything so not worth. Use vanish for it if you otherwise didn't have to use it previously

#

Otherwise just send it

#

In raids you will typically always have vanish used only for DM windows

fallow estuary
#

So in an ideal rotation we allways vanish during deathmark after like 5 casts

raven egret
#

Which is sad thematically you'd think another weapon poison on top would be nice

fallow estuary
#

So casting vanish before deathmark only happens if there is downtime when cds come up or if we have to hold them for a burst window

raven egret
#

Vanish being used after dm on the opener is barely a few seconds delay so it's not much to align them after

#

I was more saying not worth waiting on it if you have like a big gap in timing due to vanishing for other reasons, somehow

fallow estuary
#

Wait, so you're saying we DO delay it for 2nd Deathmark?

#

The few seconds

mystic kettle
#

With and without Ironclaw Stone duel wield

raven egret
# fallow estuary The few seconds

Yeah I apologize for the confusion I really thought the question was about actual gaps in timings;

Run your opener, vanish to refresh the initial garotte, the align both after that

You murdered it again bud

balmy condor

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target

TLDR:Maintain max uptime on envenom

  • For Fatebound, sanguine blades is typically much better than Deathstalker. For this reason, if you can't maintain Envenom uptime anymore, you should build combo points, then reset your energy back to around 70% before maintaining again.
  • For Deathstalker, try to stay under 50% as much as possible while maxing out Envenom uptime. Single target builds play vicious venoms instead of sanguine blades as well.

The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and use energy more efficiently for Deathstalker marks/cooldowns. Staying under 50% leads to more envenom casts, which is more Darkest Night Procs. For Fatebound, heads flips contribute damage regardless of if you're flipping or not, so this pressure to keep spending is lessened.

I don't use one myself for this but that's the typical mouseover

But I'm chilling, just waiting

raven egret
#

Who knows maybe they shadow mega buff the raid crafted dagger

#

I got two dawn thread linings sitting in my bank just in case, and we'll see what happens

#

I kinda wish the pocket grenades would be amazing cause pocket grenades are cool 😎

I only have the pathing to boots and belt maxed

And three blue tools with ingenuity enchant/flasks

We points wise we look the same

But I have 30-30-20(boots)-20(belt) and now making way to wrists

I went hard on professions

Leveled blacksmithing and leatherworking on an alt just to craft myself tools

wispy apex
#

Do you only shiv at the last 8 secs of kingsbane when you only have 1 stack of shiv?

short sedge
#

You probably shouldn't have only 1 stack of shiv

short sedge
#

Better than 5k gold xd

Thanks!

indigo mulch
#

You should have 2 shivs for kb dm tho

balmy condor
#

not possible if you're running 1 charge

royal lantern

maybe for you

#

not for me

Does anybody have a weak aura to track Deathstalkers Mark?

tawny pawn
#

yeah there is one i asked people to pin but i guess thats not up to me

#

ill look it up for you rq

royal lantern
#

!wa

tawny pawn
#

here is an isolated one

green pulsar
#

Thank you!!! I was going to ask for isolated one, but you got me sorted, tyty

normal mist
#

No problem

tawny pawn
#

Clap there is a KB one i would suggest having too

#

really good for me as a beginner

normal mist
#

For the shiv timer?

tawny pawn
#

ye

normal mist
#

Yeah same

green pulsar
#

Yeah ive got the KB one, made life a dream in DF.

balmy condor
#

I feel like those KB trackers just add so much noise now that it's literally just shiv

storm hedge
#

Does anyone know how to sim with bubbling wax instead of whetstone?

tawny pawn
#

i acidentaly posted my details cause i was about to say, turns out for me that im perfoming better with DS then FB, i guess it has to do with the fact that i dotn worry with sanguine blade as much

normal mist
#

Yeah I use a TMW to just show both timers going,I know when to shiv

tawny pawn
raven egret
tawny pawn
balmy condor
#

sadly a details breakdown is useless for that

tawny pawn
#

i think cause im bad and not using SB correctly

raven egret
#

To be clear you should never worry about Sanguine blade at all

balmy condor
#

but you're using vicious venoms

#

so you're not even using sanguine blades here

tawny pawn
#

yeah but my FB does

balmy condor
#

sure

#

that one you just ignore mostly

#

sanguine is just free damage during cooldowns and sometimes when you happen to reset your envenom uptime or run around for a boss or something

tawny pawn
#

yesterday me and my guildies we made some tests for performance, and i did place top bracket, but i want to be top top bracket and im testing stuff out, its either DS or SUB

balmy condor
#

I mean you won't be top top bracket if your guildies are anywhere near average at the game

warped moon
#

good morning fellow scoundrels and sneaks

balmy condor
#

all 3 rogue specs are below average single target

#

you're just shit out of luck

indigo mulch
#

Is there a big difference between sanguin and vicious venom?

balmy condor
#

vicious is 1% better generally

indigo mulch
#

I thought outlaw was doing good in term of sim dps even if outlaw profile sucks

balmy condor
#

sure

#

who the fuck is going to play it

raven egret
indigo mulch
#

I know atleast one guy that will.

#

=0

balmy condor
#

with some downtime you'll end up being about the same as the other two specs

#

it ain't that big

indigo mulch
#

I'm not sure why all the rogue specs are tuned so low =0

balmy condor
#

be like that

#

just happens idk

raven egret
#

Its cause mages complained they were not main characters enough

balmy condor
#

tuning isn't really a precise thing

indigo mulch
#

If they could just fix some bugs and I'm sure we'll gain a bit of dps at least

balmy condor
#

not really

indigo mulch
#

No? OK. pepehands

tawny pawn
#

not even ER

#

?

indigo mulch
#

Well atleast we have a raid buff so atleast we have Raid spot for 1 rogue

balmy condor
#

1-2% from ER

#

who cares

swift dagger
tawny pawn
#

we screwed 😦

balmy condor
#

that's not what I said

raven egret
#

Its more qol than buffs

swift dagger
#

one of us gonna get screwed

balmy condor
#

jesus you guys fucking doom

#

the moment rogue might be an average spec

tawny pawn
#

its over whisp

#

you cant save us

what frking raidteam do you guys have where people get booted on a whim for playing a class/spec that is somewhat average/bellow average

turbid harbor
#

There’s barely any rogues to start with

balmy condor
#

if you're finding out right now that rogue single target being average or slightly below average, you're too much of a shitter for it to matter

just is how it is

I mean they are still giga good in dungeons

That haven't changed.

royal lantern

ye ofc it is

#

but when m+ start

and bosses dont die in 30seconds

and the ST dmg drop actually gets noticable

oh boy

and ofc a endless barrage of "DAE NO ENERGY????"

We went from around 127k people on the server to 130k during pre-expansion to now.

i play with damage numbers off and just focus on nailing my rotation every time and then i look at my damage numbers later and i say yep ok

warped moon
#

haha the game feels so much less stressful that way, at least for me

wicked vector
#

I quit my arcane mage I leveled first to play rogue because I was having more fun playing this and outlaw

onyx mesa
#

I play with details only showing the top person, it's never me, so the class I am playing is broken

raven egret
#

I mean even with meters up there's usually a higher priority on screen for your eyes than starring at it

warped moon
#

i tried outlaw the other night!! so fun

rare jackal

the real red pill is realizing that being a good raider means playing mechanics consistently

I think people forget that if you aren't hard hard pushing rank...fun still matters lol

low iq: just play the boss

high iq: just play the boss

#

good player on a bad spec is better than a bad player on a good spec, I hear ya

royal lantern
#

i mean, also gotta remember

"bad spec" in wow is a gigantic overreaction

wicked vector
#

Fire mage being the exception atm.

royal lantern
#

the differences are most of the time really not big lol

onyx mesa
#

Yea for sure

wicked vector

It is actually bad spec

That's wild to me...when I used to play in a US 100 guild I was a flex player and rerolled every tier

#

Ich habe mal eine Frage wegen Stats auf was muss ich so achten welche sollte ich in den Focus nehmen

raven egret
#

Aside, being mid DPS is great, we are out of PI hell!!!!

wicked vector
#

This game isn't hard enough to not be able to reroll

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
  • Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results

the upcomming assa changes are like whatever right?

tawny pawn
#

the changes to outlaw were nice

cobalt flint
#

Anywhere we can find some sims with different hero talents, talents etc based on the new raid gear?

balmy condor
#

depends what info you're hoping to get from that

cobalt flint
#

Just curious about the general direction

balmy condor
#

fatebound and deathstalker are pretty much equal

#

fatebound has a bit more burst

#

deathstalker has the better mobility/defensive/funnel

cobalt flint
#

Is that also true with the reprimand bug? So speccing into lethality etc, per your video

#

I guess that is still not fixed

balmy condor
#

there would be a massive pin when it gets fixed

cobalt flint
#

I kinda like deathmark, but seems annoying in M+ tbh

balmy condor
#

it's arguably one of the biggest bugs we've had in like the last 5 years

cobalt flint
#

Well maybe it will be ok when the mobs don't vanish in 4 secs

rare jackal
#

what are the chances ER DN interaction is intended to add friction to the rotation?

cobalt flint
#

It also doesn't seem that complicated to fix it, but maybe I just don't know enough about coding

raven egret
balmy condor
#

don't care what sellia says

#

anyone who thinks this is intended is dented beyond helping

balmy condor
#

like actually not saveable

#

they're too far gone

#

void take them

raven egret
#

I mean I wasnt trying to say it was likely at all

indigo mulch
#

I just don't understand why it's not getting fixed. They are patching ret, warlock 24/7

raven egret
#

I damn well hope it's a bug

sharp viper
balmy condor
raven egret
#

That is a fact, that is in fact, truth

limber lion
#

They have fixed a bunch of our bugs in the past, but it is what it is

#

Maybe soon-ish

balmy condor
#

I mean it isn't intended though

limber lion
#

It's the most annoying ass bug that straight up kills a talent

crisp pine
limber lion
balmy condor
#

non-zero implies there's a chance it is

which it isn't

But even if it gets fixed it won't really help us being bellow avarage.

there is zero zilch nada none no nothing chance

play outlaw

Don't you already have that

I think Rogue is not the spec for you if you wanna feel that

But the outlaw channel scares me.

wish they buffed sanguine

#

lowkey hate how much damage comes from envenom

tawny geyser
#

Maybe this was asked before, but cant find...
on Deathstalker, Whispyr says to keep under 50 energy for Envenom
But if the damn Thistle Tea activates on its own, doesn't that contradict the effect...
I know he said 50 flat energy and 50% is 50%... idk, math is not my forte.

rare jackal
#

rupture on sub feels more impactful than on assa OMEGAKEKW

limber lion
#

Which one is it

tawny geyser
#

yea mb

rare jackal
limber lion
#

It's 50%

#

We don't really care or look at flat energy

tawny geyser
#

mhm, okii... man I just hope they remove that damn change with TT. zero sense.

limber lion
#

You can play the spec without energy numbers if you have a fancy bar with colors

late surge
#

Tea doesnt activate on itself yet tho

#

or did i completely miss smth

tawny geyser
#

not yet ofc

limber lion
#

Yeah not yet, but will do

late surge
#

yeah

limber lion
#

The logic will change

#

Dw

balmy condor
#

you just..... don't make it auto proc

tawny geyser
#

xD

balmy condor
#

it's still a button

#

idk the tea change is just easier for people who don't want to use the button, they're still getting a majority of the value

#

and everyone who is min-maxing will..... do the same thing they did before?

tawny geyser
#

Why don't the Rogue Dev team just reach out to Whispyr and ask for directions... I mean.
Good for Whispyr, good for Devs, good for everyone.

balmy condor
#

I don't get why people hate it so fucking much

balmy condor
#

I would've done the same thing lmao

#

for people who give a shit, it changes nothing

#

for people who don't give a shit, it's free tea

limber lion
#

I think it's pretty dank

errant night
#

i like SnD change more

limber lion
#

Also like that TTK is finally getting looked at

#

Even if it kinda does nothing

balmy condor
#

I mean it's just whatever

tawny geyser
#

SnD is huge yeah, I love it.

balmy condor
#

tea is legit a non-issue

zinc frost
#

Could be worse, we could be going back to pressing mfd into crimson tempest on single target again

limber lion
#

Why is the tea change huge lol

#

We have had perma snd forever and ever

balmy condor
#

but everyone acts like blizzard just shot their favorite talent

cus you literally get 1charge back everytime with them

Good thing the logic is energy + shiv

and has nothing to do with kb

#

soo

balmy condor
#

yeh I mean you're going to have your charge for every kb window

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

but you're also just like

#

not really at risk of "wasting" the tea

limber lion
balmy condor
#

you're still getting like the vast majority of the value of the tea even if it auto procs

#

it's really not that big of a deal

limber lion
#

Yeh

#

I think it's fine

royal lantern
#

filter hit?

balmy condor
#

spammer

limber lion
#

Tryan hit a filter?

royal lantern
#

no, i saw a message go away

limber lion
#

Ah right

#

Yeah spammers

#

All the channels light up at once

errant night
#

so the cd rotation is like: Deathmark - Shiv - Kingsbane - Tea. right?

limber lion
#

Whenever I see tc-research pop up, that's when you spot a spammer

limber lion
#

Sure you can do that in the opener with 3 charges

#

but after that you use tea for energy

#

with shiv

#

So on 2 min window you wouldn't do that, unless you get maximum energy gain from it

errant night
#

hmm

errant night
void torrent
#

so is assassin go to spec when raids go live ?

orchid cedar
#

you can go any tbh

limber lion
errant night
#

right. thx

limber lion
#

IF you have less than 200 energy

#

You want the maximum +100 energy from tea always

void torrent
#

yea but is there any data or anything which is strongest raid dps?

limber lion
#

No

#

Some but nothing that is worth looking at

orchid cedar
#

yes, not rogue

#

unless you wanna reroll, play whatever

royal lantern
#

and in m+ energy is outside of boss fights not a thing anyway

strange python
void torrent
#

okay so what I heard was BS. Read somewhere Assassin is strongest spec right now

orchid cedar
#

strongest out of all rogue specs?

#

or in general?

tawny junco
#

Does the sim take in consideration the Echoing reprimend bug with DS mark?

void torrent
#

for raids

royal lantern
#

but like, yeha there is just this 1 thing people need to remember a bit in general

the main value of tea is "you have energy and can use more abilitys", that is the main gain

the entire "use it with something else" is allready some bigtime minor minmax shit

void torrent
#

need to pull up some numbers wednesday hc so I get picked for mythic roster in my new guild.

tawny junco
#

Yes means that in the sim it works liek it should or that even in the sim it's bugged?

Assa and Sub in theory do same ST dmg, outlaw is up to debate

then make it only 1 rogue

i saw the Limit rumored set up for world frist

#

no rogues found feelscryman

#

but yea thank you guys. Gonna stay sub since that is which I know best for now.

#

Rumored set up for world first LOL

#

What are we smoking

balmy condor
#

which is meme content?

raven egret
#

lol rumored

balmy condor
#

yeah very accurate

orchid cedar
#

ye Surebud

balmy condor
#

twitch chat knows best

strange python
#

And even then

#

Max helped chat and put a rogue in

orchid cedar
#

the Atrophic poison must be good i assume

strange python
#

And said atrophic is way more than enough to have a spot

orchid cedar
#

specially for prog

strange python
#

So idk what you looked at but

subtle tundra
#

yes its a raid buff added intentionally to make rogue be played

#

that is literally the reason it was added

#

every class has one

orchid cedar
#

we'll see how logs turn out in the HC week

strange python
#

I can tell you how

orchid cedar
#

aren't you able to not take Hunters atm if you don't want to?

royal lantern
#

cus thats a good chunk of value lol

strange python
limber lion
#

not a fan of raid buffs

distant plinth
limber lion

limber lion

The point was that without raid buffs that would happen

and its good enough to bring them

It’s not great but enough

Which is actually

#

What all of them should be like

i like the evoker buff for that reason tbh

its good, but no broken shit like brand/arcane int

#

anyone know how to sim racials on raidbots?

limber lion
#

Yes

#

Next question

real pike
#

how do you sim racials on raidbots? 😄

orchid cedar
#

the unique raid buffs is both good and bad for me

distant plinth
limber lion
#

You need to do an advanced sim with your profile, followed by a big string of copied race profiles

orchid cedar
#

but it promotes diversity in the raid and more spots so it's w/e

distant plinth
#

Read the first top lines it says race: Orc blabla

Outlaw simmed like aloooot in amisrasil, but no one played it

#

huh I heard mechagnome was giving like 10-40k dps increase but the spreadsheet is showing it as far more normal

limber lion
#

Huh?

#

Compared to what?

#

Also heard where?

low ruin
limber lion
#

Racials have never been super giga

#

They're always like within 1-2%

real pike
#

just the grapevine

limber lion
royal lantern
#

cus it almost always is lol

#

outlaw is the fury warrior of rogue

limber lion
#

Also what is Alex comparing to

real pike
#

it's someone in Alex's guild tbf, I assume compared to their current race but I'm not sure which that is

limber lion
#

Like Mechagnome does 20k more dps than a Zandalari troll

real pike
#

not very helpful

limber lion
#

but it's the same as Dark Iron

#

Always have to keep in mind what they're comparing to

#

But yeah even 20k is super whatever

royal lantern
#

and that 10-20k is not really that much with our current numbers lol

limber lion
#

when you're doing 3m+ dps
